Over the next decade, Georgia Tech will become an example of inclusive innovation, a leading technological research university of unmatched scale, relentlessly committed to serving the public good; breaking new ground in addressing the biggest local, national, and global challenges and opportunities of our time; making technology broadly accessible; and developing exceptional, principled leaders from all backgrounds ready to produce novel ideas and create solutions with real human impact
Project/Unit Description The Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) is seeking cyber security & machine learning security engineers to join the Threat Analysis Branch (TAB) of the Cybersecurity, Information Protection, and Hardware Evaluation Research (CIPHER) Lab
As a Cyber Security / Machine Learning (ML) Engineer, you will conduct research & development of high-quality software systems, machine learning systems, tools, and algorithms to address real-world cyber threat analysis and intelligence problems
You will help fuse hardened AI/ML solutions and carefully designed software with state-of-the-art cybersecurity and threat intelligence research to provide support to cybersecurity researchers, cyber protection and mission teams, threat intelligence analysts, and cyber network operators
The capabilities you help build will address challenges faced by key DoD and IC customers, including malware analysis and detection, open-source threat intelligence and attribution, threat modeling, and network analysis
These capabilities will utilize state-of-the-art machine learning, other artificial intelligence techniques, and data analysis algorithms
They will require careful User Experience considerations as they present advanced visualizations to a variety of end-users
As a Cyber Security / ML Engineer in TAB, you will be expected to provide significant technical contributions and input to projects led by other TAB members
You will be expected to quickly transform high-level research concepts into concrete technical implementations
Job Purpose Scientist, engineer, or associate who performs security analysis, reverse engineering, vulnerability assessment, and/or exploitation of machine learning systems
Machine Learning Security Researchers are also expected to develop machine learning applications as needed to address cybersecurity solutions
They work with a technically savvy team of software experts to perform intelligent software analysis (including vulnerability research), reverse engineering (including malware analysis), and/or research and development on secure cyber systems
Machine Learning Security Research positions may perform these analyses at both the implementation (source and binary analysis) and behavioral level (system, network, and protocol analysis)
May also with other units within the Georgia Tech community to perform interdisciplinary research in secure computing
Over course of career establishes a portfolio of secure computing research and supervises a team of researchers
Key Responsibilities
Accordingly, we won't expect you to have deep familiarity with any particular set of tools at the outset, but you will need to be able to quickly become the one of the team's expert in at least some of the tools you use
All of our projects leverage Git, many use containers, and some example stacks we have currently include Mongo/Python/Vanilla JavaScript, Neo4J/Java/React, and Rust/Warp/Yew
All projects leverage some kind of build infrastructure such as Make, Maven, CMake, Nix, etc
